I’m a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it.

If you go home with someone, and they don’t have any books, don’t fuck them.

Found a more complete version of the Waters quote:
We need to make books cool again. If you go home with somebody and they don’t have books, don’t fuck them. Don’t let them explore you until they’ve explored the secret universes of books. Don’t let them connect with you until they’ve walked between the lines on the pages.
Books are cool, if you have to withhold yourself from someone for a bit in order for them to realize this then do so.
